GIMP printing in Suse Linux

I have a pair of printers on a SuSE 10.2 Linux system.

I have the latest Gutenprint drivers installed for my large format HP-1220C inkjet colour printer.

When I try to print from GIMP, the printer prints one line and then page after page of blank pages.

Googling has shown that if I go to printer setup and remove the -ocraw statement from the command it will print, and it does, but the print quality is terrible, even on photo paper.

I'm using GIMP 2.2.14 on Suse Linux, and the print driver I'm using is the gutenprint-5.0.1-1lsb3.1.i486. driver.

When I print from Gwenview, the quality isn't much better, but at least it prints.

Suggestions?

Thanks, Bob
